* This is the demo version of this song. (12/7/2009)

I wrote the chorus for this song during a moment of heartache – but the rest of the song and feel for the song came much later in the relationship process. More a song of advanced resignation I suppose.

The One Thing I Can Do

VERSE 1
I’m just cruising around this sleepy town
No plans, no friends, just time to kill
You cross my mind just about every turn
And that’s what keeps me stuck behind the wheel

Since your goodbye I often think about
The things I used to do but now I’m doing without
(Chorus)

CHORUS
I can’t love you like I used to do
Can’t make you smile when your feeling blue
Can’t hear your laughter no I can’t break through
But missing you…
It’s the one thing I can do

VERSE 2
Memories about love, their such peculiar things
I always see what could have been
Now all I see is your not here with me
And it’s that thing that I can do that’s doing me in

Since your goodbye I often think about
The things I used to do but now I’m doing without
(Chorus)
